Noem calls for full travel ban on certain countries following attack in Washington, D.C.

Kristi Noem urges President Trump to impose a full travel ban on up to 32 countries amid heightened security concerns following a deadly shooting near the White House, DHS said.

  • On Monday, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem recommended a full travel ban on certain countries following a deadly attack near the White House and related Washington, D.C. violence.
  • Heightened scrutiny from the recent D.C. shooting and attack prompted debate as Rahmanullah Lakanwal, the suspect, entered in 2021 via a humanitarian resettlement program and was granted asylum this year.
  • DHS and U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services halted Afghan immigration processing and began a full-scale reexamination of green card holders from 19 countries.
  • Legal experts expect prompt litigation after the agencies' actions as advocacy groups and immigrants' rights organizations challenge halts and reexaminations targeting Green-card holders from 19 countries, while officials defend protecting the American people and rejecting prior administration's resettlement policies.
  • With execution unclear, officials say it was immediately unclear what a 'full travel ban' would mean or how it would be executed, and the Department of Homeland Security told Newsweek it will announce the list soon.
